Especially in complex projects, contextual knowledge is often spread among different stakeholders. To harness this dispersed knowledge for networked innovation, working knowledge management and collaborative practices are needed. This article addresses this need for better understanding and approaches to facilitate knowledge integration for networked innovation. We consider knowledge integration as the ability to put knowledge into action, and networked innovation as the co-created goal-driven output of selected partners. Our study focuses on describing and reporting a cross-learning type of expert knowledge-integration process with boundary objects, concrete or abstract “bridges” for overcoming possible knowledge boundaries, in a co-creation network. This article adds knowledge on networked innovation through knowledge integration with boundary objects. The reported process will help managers to systematically approach problems requiring expert knowledge that does not exist within their own organization and to better integrate knowledge required for innovation within their project networks.10aboundary object10aco-creation network10across-learning10aknowledge integration10anetworked innovation1 aMäenpää, Sari1 aSuominen, Anu, Helena1 aBreite, Rainer  uhttp://timreview.ca/article/102502522nas a2200241   4500008004100000022001400041245012300055210006900178260004200247300000900289490000600298520174200304653002702046653001602073653002002089653001602109653003002125100002102155700002002176700002302196700002402219856003702243       2016                        eng d  a1927-032100aRejuvenating the Cider Route in Quebec: An Action Design Research Approach to Stakeholder Collaboration and Innovation0 aRejuvenating the Cider Route in Quebec An Action Design Research  aOttawabTalent First Networkc11/2016  a6-170 v63 aThis article examines the problem of rejuvenating collaboration for innovation among cideries (cider producers) and the regional tourism association as the historical key stakeholders of the Cider Route of the Montérégie region in Quebec, Canada. The article reports on the initial steps of an action design research approach to support the stakeholders of the Cider Route in designing an innovative solution in response to numerous challenges they face, including a lack of new initiatives and steeply declining membership among cideries. The first step of the action design research was to define the problem: to renew the collaborative process among the Cider Route stakeholders by redefining the vision, mission, and strategy leading to an artifact proposal that could take the form of a mobile application. Thus, the notion of a boundary object is employed – in relation to the process of designing an information technology artifact in the form of a mobile application for the Cider Route – as a way to understand the need to collaborate to innovate in this context. The article also reports on the ongoing second step of the action design research process, which consists of supporting the collaborative process using group concept mapping. The group concept mapping method was suggested to guide and sustain the collaborative process over time because it is a participatory, bottom-up, mixed-methods approach to evaluation and planning. The group concept mapping, applied within the action design research approach, could be helpful in two ways: first, to define the rejuvenated vision, mission, and strategy for the Cider Route; second, to define the specific functionalities of the mobile application for the Cider Route.10aaction design research10aagrotourism10aboundary object10aCider Route10astakeholder collaboration1 aCloutier, Martin1 aRenard, Laurent1 aArcand, Sébastien1 aLaviolette, Michael  uhttp://timreview.ca/article/1030
